GUNTER: Immigration a key issue for Canada in 2024

I predict immigration is going to be one of the biggest issues of 2024 because so many other issues – housing, employment, per capita GDP, health care and school crowding – are affected by it.

That means we will have to have an intelligent public debate about just how much immigration is the right amount. And that won’t be easy, because anyone who dares say there is too much immigration can count on being labelled a racist or a xenophobe. You neither have to be a bigot nor fearful of foreigners to understand the math, though.

Dutch study: immigration costs state €17 billion per year

“I can even picture a cultural and economic renaissance similar to the one in the decades prior to the beginning of World War I.” Those were the words of Deutsche Bank Chief Economist David Folkerts-Landau at the height of the 2015 refugee crisis. Refugees were “the best thing that has happened [to Germany] in 2015”, he continued, arguing that mass migration would be the key to boost the country on the global stage.

In 25 years, up to half of Canadians may identify as racialized or visible minority, report finds

Canada’s demographic revolution is running at a furious pace, with population growth outstripping even the boldest predictions, mostly due to immigration, with important implications for Canadian identity as much as demography, according to a new poll by Leger for the Association for Canadian Studies.

Canada’s population surpassed 40 million people this summer, earlier than predicted. Statistics Canada reported recently that Canada’s population grew by more than 430,000 in the third quarter of this year, for a total of 40.5 million.

Illinois NAACP president is SUSPENDED after branding Biden’s Migrants ‘rapists and savages’ who are taking resources from black and homeless people

The head of the Illinois Chapter of the NAACP has been suspended over her inflammatory comments about migrants.

Teresa Haley made the remarks during a Zoom call in October, where she labeled the more than 25,000 new arrivals ‘savages’ and ‘rapists’.

The soundbite soon went viral, and eventually elicited both an apology from Haley, and a statement from the seminal civil rights group.

Adam Zivo: Don’t let the Liberals fool you. The economy is doing worse than they say

By playing down per capita data, the Trudeau government is hiding Canada’s economic anemia behind an immigration boom

The latest GDP data from Statistics Canada shows that our economy shrank by 1.1 per cent in the third quarter of 2023. While this is already a sobering figure, the reality is much worse than many realize, as this data does not account for the fact that economic growth is being artificially inflated through high immigration.

Canada’s high immigration is driving down per-capita GDP: report

The Canadian economy experienced a contraction “unprecedented outside a recession,” according to a new analysis from National Bank Financial, a trend driven, at least in part, by a population spike that has squeezed per capita GDP growth.

The bank’s monthly economic analysis says that “signs of an economic slowdown have been multiplying.”

The Dublin Riot: A Harbinger of Things to Come?

Because it spotlights the current state of affairs in the West — and all the key players — the recent uprising in Dublin should not be so quickly forgotten.

Background: On Nov. 23, 2023, a Muslim man of Algerian origin, with a known criminal record, knifed a group of preschool children attending Saint Mary’s, a Catholic school in Dublin. Three children — two girls and a boy aged between 5 and 6 — and a care assistant who tried to defend them were stabbed in the assault. Knifed near the heart, a 5-year-old girl was critically injured and, as of the last report from December, remains hospitalized in critical condition.

UN investigator stands by claim that Trudeau government’s low-wage foreign worker program is like modern slavery

A United Nations official who said that part of Canada’s temporary foreign worker program constitutes “a breeding ground for contemporary forms of slavery” is standing by his comments, saying some agricultural and low-wage workers are subjected to unacceptable conditions, including surveillance.

Tomoya Obokata, the UN’s special rapporteur on contemporary forms of slavery, said in an interview he found some temporary migrants were working in appalling conditions in Canada, and could not escape their employers because their work permits tied them to a single employer.


I don’t often agree with the UN but on this matter I do.

Trudeau’s temporary foreign worker program along with the foreign student scam are designed to harm Canadian citizens by allowing the corporate welfare class to depress wages and import as many indentured servants as they please.

US border sees nearly 10,000 migrant crossings PER DAY in December – highest ever recorded

Border officials reported the highest number of migrant crossings ever, with a seven-day average of more than 9,600 in December, a Homeland Security official told CNN.

The record-smashing figure is the average across the entire southern border of the country. In November, the figure sat at 6,800 – meaning the southern border has seen an influx of 3,000 more arrivals per day as migrants continue to pour through the border.

‘That is a historic number,’ Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales said last week from crossing hot-spot of Eagle Pass, Texas. ‘Yet, more people are coming. And there’s more people in the pipeline.’

How the American left is fighting itself over migration

Measures to improve security at the US border are stuck in Congress as Republicans demand tighter restrictions but a combination of left-wing and Hispanic Democrats oppose moves to make claiming asylum harder.

President Biden included $13.6 billion for additional border agents, asylum officers and retention facilities in his $106 billion funding bill for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

“Mass Migration Blueprints” Reveal NGOs “Carefully Planned” US Migrant Invasion, Report Says

A network of NGOs, or non-governmental organizations, seems to be playing a powerful role in coordinating the large-scale invasion of illegals at the US southern border.

The new website Muckraker revealed a treasure trove of “mass migration blueprints,” handed out by NGOs across South and Central America to illegals with details about their route to the US.

Malice in Blunderland: Biden’s Border

Biden’s refusal to protect the southern border is objectively a disaster

Of all Biden’s failings, immigration is in a class by itself. While we may disagree with his other blunders and lament his failures of execution, these have a subjective element. In contrast, Biden’s open border is objectively a deliberate dereliction of duty. It is wrong and dangerous for Biden to make America pay the cost of his political subservience to the extremist left.

Thousands join Christmas migrant caravan as it treks through Mexico and towards the U.S. border

The biggest migrant caravan for 18 months set off for the US from Mexico on Christmas Eve as border crossing records continue to tumble.

Around 10,000 people led by Mexican activist Luis Rey Garcia Villagran left the southern Mexican border town of Tapachula for the long march north as more of those already at the US border finished their journey this evening.

President Joe Biden has hauled Secretary of State Anthony Blinken away from the crisis in the Middle East for a summit with Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador on Wednesday, after US authorities recorded more than 242,000 migrants crossing in November alone.

You could turn off the immigration spigot you lying asshat …

No ‘silver bullet’ to fix housing as population rapidly grows: Trudeau

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he knows young people are frustrated with him, and chief among those frustrations is the high cost of housing, which has left many young people feeling home ownership is out of reach.

However, Trudeau denies critics who suggest the federal government only began taking the housing file seriously in the last few months.

What a shitheel.

Immigration Department Researching Whether ‘Climate Refugees’ Will Flee to Canada

The Department of Immigration is conducting research on whether people fleeing the effects of climate change will attempt to enter Canada, as the law does not currently recognize “climate considerations” as grounds to claim refugee status.

“Canada is investing in projects that aim to strengthen data and evidence related to climate mobility in order to deepen our understanding of who is on the move and people’s considerations in deciding whether to move,” Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada wrote to the Senate National Finance Committee, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.

I guess word was sent to make more bogus reasons to keep the mass immigration scam going.
